1. server does not exist (iamsorude.mysql.com)
2. dns problem
3. routing problem from a specific location

I guess the problem is that this website is too slow for a browser
(like firefox) to download (it takes too long to initiate the
transaction because the browser fails). However, I can use wget is
more resilient to this problem. And once, the connection is
established it can be downloaded quickly.
